Welcome to the MotherMUD wiki!

What is it?

MotherMUD is a telnet MUD client written in python 2.7. It uses a flat file structure to define the world, and saves all data into easily-editable text files. A major goal for the project is to allow anyone to create content for the world, regardless of programming expertise, by simply creating and editing human-readable text files.

Additionally, since the creators of the project love the Mother RPG series, and Earthbound in particular, the world that is defined by default is a continuation of the world portrayed in the Mother series, as imagined by passionate fans. We love you, Earthbound!

What do I need to run it?

MotherMUD requires python 2.7. Additionally, it must be run in a linux environment. MotherMUD is developed and tested on the most recent release of Ubuntu Desktop.
